Once upon a time, I heard Hausheer, Geoffrey say
I use slightly diffrent model, Power Slim600 PII333
> I have a Twinhead 600e ultraslim laptop
> I have run Slack and Debian (potato) on it without much of a hitch
I ran slink on this a few months back, now Patato.
> The system has a 6.3GB drive (2GB linux/4GBWin98)
Whole 6.3GB is Debian.
> PcTel Winmodem that doesn't work in linux
I trew it out already :P
> 2.5MB Toshiba Video is supported by XFree 3.3.5 and later
> (resolution is only 800x600 though)
I got Xfree 3.3.5 for slink from branden page a while ago.
> USB (I am working on getting this to work currently. It should be
> OK since it uses the Intel chipset)
Haven't tried either
> External floppy works OK
I rarely use it but it was fine. I even could swap external floppy
with my friend's vavio :)
> Internal DVD-Rom works fine, though I've had no luck playing DVDs
I only have CD, which I would like to take it out too. But I dont'
have dummy bay.
> Touchpad works fine (haven't tried an external mouse though)
external mouse works fine too. The bad thing about thouch pad is I
have to tripple click to get double ckick.
> ACPI doesn't do power management in the 2.3 kernels
haven't tried it yet.
> APM works fine, but you need to switch to console to power down
> while in X
suspend to disk also works, I rarely shutdown my laptop. BTW, I use
gdm which I could configure it to have a shutdown/restart menu.
> Maestro 2e sound was poor in 2.2.15 Still playing with it in 2.3.xx
It works, at least :)
> PCMCIA ethernet card w/ cable-modem works fine (except for
> occasional
> startup problems)
> 128MB ram/PII366
irda port also work. I could use irtty to use SIR mode. For FIR, news
2.2.15-pre1? start to have support for the FIR chipset in this
machine. But the driver is not fully implement yet, or not?
One bad thing is that this machine is real HOT, compare to my dad acer 314T
which has similar spec.
